„[...] the "present" constitutes the distributed musical material, in which the "new" implies the "having been" distributed, with which the "yet-to-come" has to have a mutual background with [...]“
the ensemble extends musical improvisation with electro-acoustic instruments that are connected to a network based on audiosignals and network-communication. the aim of this project is to create transient- and spatial situations in this musical network through improvised musical articulation.
the musical material of each of the performers is distributed to each of the clients of the improvisation-network. the transformation of the sounds is realized by self-programmed electro-acoustic instruments. an electro-acoustic language arises in which the musical vocabulary and musical gesture is affected, influenced, and manipulated by each of the part-taking soloists.
for concerts, the ensemble is positioned in the middle of the space. a multiple loudspeaker-setup is positioned around the ensemble or sited acousmatically within the space.
by spatialisation of the sounds through multiple loudspeaker-configurations, each soloist is enabled to use different methods to project the sounds into the space. spatialisation becomes part of musical improvisation & improvised spaciousness.
the "+" means that guest musician oftenly accompany the ensemble for concerts or recordings.
